                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  In 1780, Samuel Adams said, If you carefully fulfill the various 
duties of life, from a principle of obedience to your heavenly Father, 
you will enjoy a peace that the world cannot give nor take away.
  Let us pray.
  Gracious Father, we seek to be obedient to You as we fulfill the 
sacred duties of this Senate today. May the Senators and all who assist 
them see the work of this day as an opportunity to glorify You by 
serving our country. We renew our commitment to excellence in all that 
we do. Our desire is to know and do Your will. Grant us a profound 
experience of Your peace, true serenity in our soul that comes from 
complete trust in You, and dependence on Your guidance. Free us from 
anything that would distract or disturb us as we give ourselves totally 
to You for the tasks and challenges of this day. In our Lord's name. 
Amen.
